Technical Specification

The most common and simplest weave pattern. Each weft wire passes alternately over and under each warp wire, and each warp wire does the same with each weft wire — a 1×1 interlacing pattern.

Produces a stable, uniform square opening. Both warp and weft wires are of the same diameter in most cases.

Each weft wire passes over two and under two warp wires in a stepped diagonal pattern — a 2×2 interlacing. This creates a visible diagonal rib on the mesh surface.

Allows finer wire diameters to be used at higher mesh counts compared to plain weave, providing greater strength and finer filtration.

Uses thicker, widely spaced warp wires and finer, closely packed weft wires. Weft wires are woven plain (1×1) but packed tightly together, creating triangular openings instead of square ones.

Provides high strength with very fine filtration. The dense weft packing gives excellent resistance to pressure and mechanical stress.

Combines twill weave interlacing (2×2 pattern) with Dutch weave construction — thick warp wires and densely packed fine weft wires. Produces extremely fine filtration openings (sub-micron range possible).

Offers the highest filtration precision of all standard wire cloth weave types. Widely used where both fine filtration and mechanical robustness are critical.

The reverse of Plain Dutch — fine warp wires are closely packed and thicker weft wires are widely spaced. Produces longitudinal slot-shaped openings running parallel to the warp direction.

Provides excellent dimensional stability under load and is well suited to applications requiring easy cleaning and back-flushing.

A hybrid construction — twill interlacing applied to Dutch weave configuration. The weft wires pass over two and under two warp wires while remaining densely packed, combining the benefits of both twill and Dutch constructions.

Used where extremely fine openings with high flow rates and structural integrity are required simultaneously.

Both warp and weft wires are pre-crimped (corrugated) before weaving. The crimp pattern locks each wire intersection firmly in place, making this the most stable of all crimped weave types.

Particularly suitable for heavy-duty industrial screening and vibrating screens where wires must not shift under load or vibration.

Both wires are crimped but the crimp is placed at intermediate points — not at every intersection — to allow wider mesh openings while maintaining some wire stability. Used for coarser mesh sizes where lock crimp is unnecessary.

Balances open area and structural firmness, making it cost-effective for general industrial screening.

Only the weft wires are crimped while the warp wires remain straight and flat across the top surface. This creates a smooth, flat upper surface ideal for conveying applications where material must slide easily.

The flat warp surface reduces wear on conveyed material and the mesh itself, extending service life in abrasive environments.

Individual wire spirals are interlinked together rather than woven over and under in a conventional loom. The resulting mesh has no individual crossing point — each spiral links continuously with adjacent spirals.

Provides excellent flexibility and open area. Commonly used in conveyor belt meshes and architectural mesh panels.

A specialised weave where each weft wire passes over one and under four warp wires in a 1×4 pattern. This produces a smooth surface on one side with closely packed wires and a high percentage open area for the wire diameter used.

Used in applications requiring a smooth filtration surface combined with high flow rates, such as paper pulp screening and plastic extrusion.

Not a woven mesh in the conventional sense — warp and weft wires are electrically resistance-welded at every intersection point rather than interlaced. Produces a rigid, dimensionally precise grid with consistent square or rectangular openings.

Provides superior rigidity, uniform aperture accuracy and is widely used in construction, fencing, concrete reinforcement, and industrial enclosures.
